Lets talk about these, not YA stuff that kids get into these days, but books aimed specifically at children
my little cousin loved the movie so I read this to him, he was really confused at how different it was (for example the dragon speaks in this version), but he actually liked it
I was pleasantly surpirsed myself, to be honest, things actually die here and the author never dances around the bush, at the end the big bad dragon explodes plastering meaty bits all over the place, 10 out 10.
We already did The Hobbit, I was thinking of reading him the Narnia books next or Redwall since it was mentioned on the /sffg/ thread, or maybe some Ronald Dahl.
I think Roald Dahl books are great for young kids to introduce them to literature and reading and general.
Gabriel Jackson
Everything by Roald Dahl is great
Ronia the Robber's Daughter Pippi Longstocking The Moomins Where The Wild Things Are Winnie the Pooh Richard Scarry
Pic related was my favourite though
Nathaniel Morales
i didnt read as a kid and other people wont allow me around their children so i cant help you sry
Jordan Sullivan
Series of Unfortunate Events is a great read for young'uns
William Campbell
Read this earlier in the year. Neat introduction to fantasy for children too young to understand the Hobbit.
Also a rec for Tolkien / comfy book fans.
Aiden Wright
>Redwall EULALIAAAA
Noah Butler
I'd like to recommend Deltora Quest for good ol' high fantasy for kids.
Luis Butler
Redwall is based
Christopher Jackson
The Edge Chronicles. The world building is excellent and the art (which occurs every few pages) is very well done.
Oliver Thompson
you nuggets read the stinky cheese man?
Brayden Richardson
Roald Dahl or bust
Bentley Scott
Any more cosy children's lit? I love this stuff.
Dominic Allen
Little Lord Fauntleroy for comedy and Secret Garden for comfy.
Dominic Butler
Sad to say, but I read more as a child than I have at any other age.
I could give you recommendations for hours.
Here's my all-time favorite though.
Parker King
bruh.
Blake Taylor
...
Nicholas Nguyen
this one requires a bit more maturity but it's pretty captivating.
Gabriel Diaz
yo what about dem dumb bunnies yo
Christopher Hill
and for the edgy fucks in the classroom...
Jaxson Peterson
too busy reading captain underpants my main man
Ayden Sanders
Those books I think were instrumental in forming my sense of humor as a child and I would like to introduce the series to my currently very young niece. What do you think the proper age would be to begin reading these books?
Henry Howard
Excellent choice OP, keep reading them they just get better and better.
I would also recommend The Baertimaus trilogy by Jonathan Stroud, The Septimus Heap series by Angie Sage and The Secret series by Pseudonym Bosch
Nathan Campbell
Anyone?
Blake Phillips
Start with the Greeks you fucking pleb
Xavier Hill
>not with the babilonians
No, user, you're the pleb.
Easton Hall
Wishbone Great Illustrated Classics Heroes of America (a little propaganda-y but i loved them) NIMH Norby
I've always wanted to read that book since it's called The little 'prince' but the person on the cover is wearing a cute dress. Would I be disappointed?
David Peterson
Recommending Redwall. You will have enough books to read into adolescence.
Also the Badgers are swole AF.
Isaac Moore
all of these are terrible and you should neck yourselves right now for posting what is basically the YA of children's literature
Grayson Sullivan
Glad to see elitism extends to children's lit.
David Hill
You're a joke.
Levi Fisher
Get a load of this faggot
Juan Foster
>the little prince
>YA
you should start playing some russian roulette
once a day
for the rest of your miserable existence on this earth
